The Infamous Stringdusters recently played two nights at Terrapin Crossroads. Both shows were fantastic and not just because of the "guest" musicians.

I always thought to myself "Self....Bertha would sound so much better with a dobro, fiddle and banjo......"

Life is now good.

Quite an enjoyable rendition of a usually strong, consistent tune. However the quintessential version (for me at least) is the one from Skull&Roses album. Happy Anniversary! Our 28th is 7/23/86.

Nicely done, and Mr. Lesh seems to be enjoying himself too.
